Narrowing down a search?

I would like to search on "sin" and its variations (sinned, sins, sinner, sinners). I could, but I don't want to because it would take more time, search on each individual word.

The easiest way would be to type in sin* which would find them all, but this also give me words such as "since, single, sing, sincere, Sinai, sink".

Is there a way to find these variations of "sin", without all of these other, unrelated words?

Of course, one way would be to do an "or" search on the Greek words, as in: /amartia amartanw(all 1,108 occurences - including the Apocrypha - with, surprisingly, Leviticus having 163!), but I am more concerned here with how the word is translated within its context.

Search .sin* then click the words tab. In the bottom right you'll see all the words found. Determine which ones are the ones you want that are related to sin and do an "or" search including all of them.
